Capped eight times by France, Lacazette broke Andre Guy`s 46-year-old club record for the most goals scored by a Lyon player in a campaign last season and was named Ligue 1`s player of the year by his fellow professionals.

However, Lacazette left open the possibility that he may still move on in the not too distant future.

"There have been no promises. I am under contract until 2019. Anything can happen. The number one objective is to have a great season. We will see in a year where we are and there has been no discussion about any agreement to let me leave."

Champions seven years in a row in the last decade, Lyon finished second to champions Paris-Saint Germain last season and open their 2015-2016 campaign at home to Lorient on Sunday.
